I promised to share my views on Creationism after discussing Evolutionism.  I want to summarize the problem with Evolutionism, at least as I see it, first.
    Evolution (macro-evolution) is the unprovable idea that simple organisms became complex organisms by mutating over millions of years.  Science cannot show that evolution has a truth-likeness because it is not observable or reproducible.
    Likewise, Creationism is an unprovable idea that God (Jesus the Christ) created all organisms and I believe He did it all in six days.  Science cannot show that creationism has a truth-likeness because it is not obvervable or reproducible (if you don't accpt the Biblical account).
    Ecolutionists and Creationists are very much in the same boat.  Each believes.  Each brings pre-suppositions to the argument and it is much more about faith than it is about science.
    The issue I hold against the most public of Evolutionists is their desire to save the world.  When one who subscribes to an ideology of the survival of the fittest, one needs to allow the fittest to survive without reservation.  One also needs to let those who are weaker perish.
    This brings me to my angst against Creationists at large.  Creationists are not good at the general upkeep of creation.  Okay, that is an understatement; most Creationists are "the suck" when it comes to planetary maintenance. 
    Creation (the whole universe, etc.) is a prescious thing.  Humanity was given dominion over the earth.  I cannot think that dominion means destruction.  If I gave a friend lordship over my house, I would expect that he would take care of the investment he has.  Suppose he throws all kinds of parties, I would be disappointed and angry with the damage.
    I am not talking of global warming.  I don't believe in global warming.  I believe that we are still coming out of an ice age and polar ice caps are not normal for the Earth's climate.  I would hope that even the Evolutionist could see that.  Greenhouse gases are not a problem and humans cannot do enough to damage the climate of the Earth when compared to your average volcano.
     I am talking about mass deforrestation, strip-mining and the extiction of species.  I know wood is a renewable resource but we are behind in renewing it.  Creationists ought to strive for sustainable farming practices in everything, including wood farming.  As for strip-mining, yeah that hole is big and deep but does it have to be so big and so deep?
    The preservation of species really ought to be the sweet spot for Christians.  If you believe God created  polar bears, you ought to want to save polar bears.  The same can be said for any creature.  I am not saying that Creationists should be vegetarians; I am saying we should not allow species to die out.  If you choose to not eat meat, so be it; more for me.  If you do eat meat, make sure that you eat that which is common.
      I think we could help the polar bears by giving them a bit of help.  Why not send out for some take out for the bears?  My initial thought is that we could club baby seals and airlift them in.  I think that is a bit barbaric.  Though, seals are the cattle of the sea.  I can think of no other creature that searve to feed so many species.  They are food to people, polar bears, sharks and orcas.  There are plenty of them, too.  If you don't like that idea, try beef.  Beef or pork could be airlifted in by the side to feed bears.   And, what about all the deer carcasses that litter our roadways all year?
    Some species could be saved by our detemined efforts to help.  Others could be saved by a concerted effort to not harm.  I don't think car emissions are contributing to the destruction of the world, but it is not so nice to breath.  We should be seeking to cut emissions when we can.  Driving around a parking lot three times for a better spot is probably not the best use of time and energy.
    I think it is interesting that some of the best things we can do for Creation also benefits us.  If you want to really impact creation for the better, ask an Evolutionist for some pointers.

    I ponder and query often.  For those of you not in the know, my degree is in Philosophy.  Obviously, I am not using my education to my best abilities by working at RadioShack.  When that big philosophy firm opens in Des Moines, I’m ready.
    One of the things I wonder about is humanity’s lack of consistency.  I beg you to allow me to pick on evolution.  Darwin is completely ignored, today.  Science, we are told, supports macro-eveloution; i.e.,all life coming from one source, billions of years ago.  I don’t believe it but that is in part 2.
    Darwin notices that the same kind of birds may adapt diferently depending on their environment.  He looked a great deal at beaks.  The beak of on bird may have adapted to allow the bird to get bugs from the inner parts of deep flowers; while another bird, identical in everyother way, may have a beak that allows it so crunch harder exoskeletons.  Darwin then surmised that if one bird’s food source vanished, the bird would die and so too its offspring.
    The theory is that only the strongest of a species, the one with the best adaptation, will survive.  This is what I was taught in school and what I here in the news and media today.  I (a creationist) do not discount this.  This really is the way it appears to work.  It is called micro-evolution and it works.
    I am not actually debating the evolution, creation chestnut here and now.  I am calling for consistency.  If you believe in evolution, I can assume that you are not actualy a raving lunatic that wants to eat my baby.  Likewise, I’m sure, you can respect my beliefs and, though I may be crazy, still sit with me at the end of the bar and discuss the six nations tournament.
    The kind of consistancy I am calling for is consistancy of thought.  If you believe that Darwin was right and the weakest of a kind of thing will die, then let them do it.  I will pick on polar bears.  Polar bear numbers seem to be down because they are scattered and their food so far away.  The ice shelf melted dramatically last summer (though it did reform to nearly its normal size this winter) and that means polar bears had to swim farther with out food just to look for food.  So..., evolve already.
    It is my estimation that Darwin loving scientists are not allowing Darwin’s hoodoo to do its thing.  These scientists are calling for drastic actions to curtail greenhouse gases in order to keep global warming from getting worse.  (I think glabal warming is a good thing, that’s another blog.)  What they ought to be doing is raising awareness to the facts of evolution.  Science is SUPPOSED to be impartial.  It is SUPPOSED to observe.  And, it is SUPPOSED to be varifyable.
    What we have is science co-opted by animists who want to save the polar bear because it has a spirit; because it is my brother.  The philosophy we are seeing in the sciences is cosmic-humanism.  To see this philosophy played out, go watch the Mouse.  Pocohantas is the best example of this philosophy I’ve seen in a long time. 
    Darwin’s theory gives no quarter for the spirit of a thing.  If a thing is unfit, it will cease to exist (it may continue to actually exist  as a nutritional deposit, thus giving strength to the stronger thing).  I do not know if Darwin was an atheistic secular-humanist (my suspician) or a devout cathilic; but, I know he contented himself in the knowledge that a weaker thing may die so a stronger thing would exist (thus denying the well established scientific law of entropy [look it up in your physics books under laws of thermodynamics]).
    If you are an evolutionist, do not follow your heart rather follow your head.  I am not calling for action, I am calling for inaction. Observe the true scientific process and, well, observe.  It is not for you to meddle in afair that have been in motion for 4.5 billion yours.
     I will still drink a beer with you and share my conversation with you.  The whole world will thank you for not lying about who you are.  I promice to not lie about who I am in part 2.

I am hanging up the spandex.  That is not to say the ToastMaster is calling it quits.  I still have plenty left in my tank. 

I am changing my hero duds from spandex.  I will be wearing "normal", everyday clothes with a blue checked apron, mask and a toque.  Still, it is a sad day when a Class "C" minor-super hero changes from the uniform that so many have come to see as his identity.  One must ponder the ramifications of such a move.  Hopefully the baddies will still recognize the ToastMaster.  If they don’t, then I will cause them to remember.

Spandex certainly has its place in crime fighting; but, not for me.  It is simply too flammable.  When I yell, "let’s heat things up," I ought not to catch fire.  To make matters worse, I was not even in a real crime-fighting situation; I was practicing in my lair.  The emergency room doctors are very nice.

I have other reasons for giving up the strechy stuff.  I have to face the fact that Spandex is too revealing and that is not a good thing like it was when I was in better shape.  The color of my suit (brown) was a bit odd in spandex, one might expect brighter colors.  I can get the same effect in chef pants or even khakis. 

The biggest reason I had in choosing to doff my uni was best stated in my Manifesto on the War Against Cliches in Super-Heroism.  For those of you who have yet to read my Manifesto, I can summarize.  The super-hero community, as a whole, relies too much on cliches.  We really are on thin ice here.  The crime syndicates know our weakness in this matter and will often use it to our detriment.  While we give 110%, they mock us.  I just have to say "no" to cliches.

The biggest part of the battle is knowledge.  Knowledge is power.  One might say that knowing is half the battle.  The problem is that most heroes don’t know their elbow from their apple when it comes to cliches.    That  is why I am here, to be a beacon of light in the darkness.  We must keep pressing: we have to leave it all on the field.  I will do my part, the gloves are off.  I am on record, now.  It is a new day.  Giving up cliches IS this year’s black.
